Nothing But The Truth

I just finished reading Nothing But The Truth by Avi, and I loved it.

This was my first multi-genre book I've read and I really like how it was written. All the different aspects of conversation, memos, emails, news articles made it a really fast and good read.

While reading there was a couple of things that I didn't agree with. First I didn't agree with the suspension of Philip. I think that it could have been handled differently. I also didn't agree with the Principal when she moved Philip out of Miss. Narwins classroom. To me I felt like they just gave into what he wanted and you cant do that for every student.

Another thing that also bothered me was that it was all one sided until the end when a news reporter wanted to get Miss. Narwins side of the story. I think if this happened today people would be pushing more for both sides and not just one.

I wasn't a big fan about the ending. After reading the book I couldn't see Miss. Narwin just giving up like that and leaving. I also couldn't picture Philip crying in class, it just didn't seem realistic.

Overall it was a good book and really enjoyed reading it.
